In "Winning Now, Winning Later," David M. Cote, the transformative former CEO of Honeywell International, presents a compelling argument against the pervasive business philosophy that forces leaders to choose between short-term gains and long-term growth. Through the lens of his remarkable tenure at Honeywell, where he steered the company away from the brink of disaster to unparalleled success, Cote unveils a revolutionary approach. With rigorous insight and undeniable expertise, he demonstrates how adopting a dual-focus on immediate results and future sustainability does not just balance, but synergizes to create a powerhouse of enduring value. This book is not just a recount of corporate turnaround; it is a blueprint for leaders who dare to challenge the status quo, armed with Cote’s ten essential principles for achieving both day-to-day victories and laying the groundwork for decades of prosperity. Cote's narrative goes beyond traditional leadership manuals, offering a rare blend of strategic advice rooted in real-world execution and results. "Winning Now, Winning Later" empowers managers and executives with practical tools to identify and dismantle short-term practices that threaten long-term potential, strategically invest in growth areas, and maintain robust performance even in the face of economic downturns and leadership transitions. It is a testament to the power of visionary leadership and the tangible rewards of courageous decision-making. Whether you are at the helm of a struggling enterprise or guiding a thriving one, Cote's insights will inspire you to rethink your approach, challenge the pervasive culture of short-termism, and leave a legacy of success that spans generations.
